In a world of advancing digitalization, computer scientists are in high demand on the job market due to their targeted skills. Surveys among graduates regularly show that a permanent employment contract with a competitive salary beckons immediately after studying computer science.
Computer scientists make a significant contribution to the innovative capacity of medium-sized and large companies. They work in research and development, consulting, sales and management for companies in areas such as hardware and software development, information and communication technology, IT consulting, vehicle and mechanical engineering, aerospace technology, etc. Many also choose the path to self-employment and found their own start-ups.
The science of computer science is located at the interface between structural, engineering, natural and social sciences. Computer scientists analyse requirements, design systems, research the principles of machine information processing and the social effects of advancing digitalization, for example through AI. Computer science offers great creative potential and relies on the open-mindedness of students to deal with new things on a daily basis in this fascinating, rapidly growing discipline.
